Pavel Kurochkin, manager of labor protection, industrial safety and ecology at NIPIGAS company, talks about the realization of the NIPIGAS project for the construction of the Amur gas processing plant for LLC Gazprom pererabotka Blagoveshchensk and about the design and implementation of preparatory works for the construction of the Amur gas-chemical plant for LLC SIBUR. New approaches to labor protection and safety, which are used at NIPIGAZ construction sites, make it possible to control the safety of work at heights and in inaccessible places and to monitor construction and installation works using video surveillance technologies and video analytics.

Productivity in the construction industry is declining in real-time. The decline in productivity is a source of worry for practitioners and researchers. The purpose of this paper is to ascertain major factors influencing productivity in relation to the notion of respects for people (RFP) in construction. The reviewed literature influences the semi-structured questionnaire used to survey construction professionals in Johannesburg, South Africa. The results reaffirm the tension productivity increment and the enhancement of RfP as both ideas appear to be moving in opposite directions on a typical construction site. It was discovered that respect for workers on a construction site is a major concern. The paper argues that ethical reasoning affects productivity. Therefore, an appropriate management system is required to improve the workers' perception of productivity and RfP working on construction sites.

In the Korean construction industry, legal and institutional safety management improvements are continually being pursued. However, there was a 4.5% increase in the number of workers’ deaths at construction sites in 2017 compared to the previous year. Failure to wear safety helmets seems to be one of the major causes of the increase in accidents, and so it is necessary to develop technology to monitor whether or not safety helmets are being used. However, the approaches employed in existing technical studies on this issue have mainly involved the use of chinstrap sensors and have been limited to the problem of whether or not safety helmets are being worn. Meanwhile, improper wearing, such as when the chinstrap and harness fixing of the safety helmet are not properly tightened, has not been monitored. To remedy this shortcoming, a sensing safety helmet with a three-axis accelerometer sensor attached was developed in this study. Experiments were performed in which the sensing data were classified whether the safety helmet was being worn properly, not worn, or worn improperly during construction workers’ activities. The results verified that it is possible to differentiate among wearing status of the proposed safety helmet with a high accuracy of 97.0%

With the huge demand for building underground spaces, deep foundation pits are becoming more and more common in underground construction. Due to the serious effects associated with accidents that occur in deep foundation pits, it is very important for underground construction safety management to be proactive, targeted, and effective. This research develops a conceptual framework adopting BIM and IoT to aid the identification and evaluation of hazards in deep foundation pit construction sites using an automated early warning system. Based on the accident analysis, the system framework of Safety Management System of Deep Foundation Pits (SMSoDFP) is proposed; it includes a function requirement, system modules, and information needs. Further, the implementation principles are studied; they cover hazardous areas, namely, visualization, personnel position monitoring, structural deformation monitoring, and automatic warning. Finally, a case study is used to demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the system proposed. This research provides suggestions for on-site management and information integration of deep foundation pits, with a view to improving the safety management efficiency of construction sites and reducing accidents.

Over the last few years we have been facing many problems related to the Occupational Health and Safety, Environmental Safety and Quality in construction sites during the execution of project. Now-a-days the clients need the work to be done with full quality in safety manner. This Paper explains the “Integrated Management System (IMS)”. which integrates various departments like Execution, Planning, Design, Occupational health and safety, Environmental Safety, Human Resources, Quality Assurance/Quality Control etc., according to standards such as ISO 9001, uISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001. This IMS is one of emerging techniques that brings all the departments into a single one. This study was done by collecting the data by conducting interviews with professionals from all the departments in the Steel Melt Shop Construction Project such as Human Resource team, Design team, Procurementlteam, Execution Team, Quality team, Safety team etc. This Paper concludes with a detailed framework of IMS for a steel Melt shop Project by integrating the functions of various departments in the project and develops a basic plan of IMS for both Top level Management and Bottom Level Management. This IMS Plan has been Prepared for Contractors, its sub-contractors and other Stack holders if any involving in this project. This Integrated management system will minimize the overall cost, time and manpower.
